CERTIFICATION AS A HEALING TOUCH PRACTITIONER

Healing Touch International administers certification through a separate review by the Certification Board of Reviewers using standardized criteria. Certification acknowledges learning experiences and demonstration of competence as a Healing Touch Practitioner. The Certification Board does not license the practice of an individual nor assumes any legal responsibility for her/his practice.

Application submission dates for practitioner certification. Applications are accepted four times each year and should arrive in the HTI office during the 30 days proceeding the submission deadline:
       2009: March 1, July 15, and October 15
       2010: January 15, April 15, July 15, and October 15
       2011: January 15, April 15, July 15, and October 15

Target Audience
The Healing Touch program is for registered nurses, health care professionals, body-oriented therapists, psychotherapists or other licensed health care professionals and individuals who desire an in-depth understanding of healing work that uses energy-based concepts. Certification as a Healing Touch Practitioner is an appropriate goal for those who wish to establish a Healing Touch practice or incorporate Healing Touch as a major focus within an existing professional practice.

Certification is intended for the professional practitioner. It is anticipated that individuals come to this level with preparation and work experience which have contributed to her/his awareness of concepts of confidentiality, responsibility for licensure and documentation for “hands on” treatments, medical ethics, interpersonal relationships, community involvement and awareness of limitation as well as scope of practice.

Certification as a practitioner is available to those who meet eligibility requirements and have successfully completed Levels 1 through 5 taught by a HTI Certified Healing Touch Instructor including the additional work required.
